UPDATE:I sympathize with writers trying to find a new angle on this story, but this Jamelle Bouie column — arguing that conservatives are somehow being inconsistent in thinking Eich should not have been hounded out of a job and also opposing ENDA — makes no sense. It’s not as though conservatives are saying that the law should have protected Eich from the campaign against him. I suspect that a lot of conservatives think that Eich should have been able to keep his job, and that employers should not discriminate against gays and lesbians, but don’t want the law involved in either case.
